A new blogpost in the "Seeing Double" series:
#4 – Blending colours with doubled yarns
|
Have you ever thought about working with two or more strands of colour at the same time? If you haven’t, then you’re missing something – it’s like painting with yarns! By changing first one colour strand and then another you can create absolutely stunning gradients and shifts of tones and shades. So in today's addition to the “Seeing Double” blogpost series, I want to explore some of the colour effects you can get when you mix different colours together just by using two or more yarns held together while you work.

New Winter Weight version for the Lamberhurst Scarf pattern
New Winter-Weight version of the Lamberhurst Scarf
|
Winter is setting in hard in the northern states, isn't it, so it's definitely time to think about knitting scarves to keep warm!
I have a number of scarf patterns which include a thicker weight version, including the Beckenham Scarf and the Grantchester Scarf. However, I have recently received a number of requests for a thicker version of the Lamberhurst Scarf so have added that to the pattern. The pattern now includes 3 different versions so you'll be sure to find just the perfect option for your next men's scarf! Please click the link below for more information. |

Where we like to knit
|
If you click on the "About" tab of this website, you will see that I have a gallery of places where I like to knit, courtesy of my husband Tim's photos. Well, here's another one to add to that collection!
This was during our visit to Sweden last year and the photo shows Anna and I knitting together by Lake Mälaren in the gardens of Grönsöö Palace just to the west of Stockholm. It was gloriously sunny and warm during our visit and it was so enjoyable to be with Anna and her husband. Please click here to read more about this beautiful place. |
